and go be it” – The Avett Brothers
yesterday that I was counting down the last days of 2015…feeling not so joyful
at the Christmas Season time, as usual, witnessing, firsthand, my process of
divorce …and preparing for 2016, and
our changing times. Wow…and here we are
with 2016 half over…and YES…times are a chang’in…and then
some!!!
month of Freedom…of Independence (often as we come to Truly understand
Interdependence)…Let Freedom Ring…even if just for a moment or so.
Always remember… What YOU do and who YOU are…..MATTERS!
Early in the year, everyone
talks about planning, changes, moving-forward, transformations, and some
interesting and well-meant resolutions that may seldom come to fruition.
However, how about Freedom?
Yes, freedom to be who you are without feeling the “need” to please anyone but
yourself?…Yes…those “shoulds”. We know all those
“shoulds” (cousin to “I’d better”, and “I have to”)…all too well!
I often ask my clients for
“themes” to kick-start their New Year, or new quarter, or a new era in their
lives. In fact, I ask mySelf that very
same question! This particular year, I
happened to take the theme from a picture of mySelf looking into the ocean’s
horizon (which I tend to do quite often…and, yet, another post for another
time) with my back turned to the camera.
I was immediately inspired
by what that picture symbolized. It meant my turning my back to the past… and
saying, “Hello and Welcome”…to the present…percursor to my future…to the Now of
me!
In fact, I realized, quite
clearly, that…
I want to make the rest of
this year…my New Beginning… all about me… and I don’t need to make an effort to
fulfill any of those shoulds. I will
be the way that I want to be… the way that I want to feel… and only the people
that are okay with that… and like it that way, can be a part of my life!!!
Really!!!
I promptly realized that all
of us looking for our own mental and internal freedom… and only those who
understand it…or are on the path to finding it… or are already on their
way….will allow others to be in and
on our Life’s Journey… whether for a minute… a day …or for a lifetime. We are also exercising our freedom to choose
in advance, who we want in our Life… how, when, where and why.
Our inner guidance system…Source, Spirit, GOD is
telling us what’s best for us… and choosing Freedom to be who we are…
and who we want to be NOW, as well as, in the future is amazingly refreshing,
beautiful, and deeply profound.
By the way…My definition of
Freedom is… “To get rid of beliefs…and anyone…anything in between… that hold us
back and keep us stuck in a limiting external world… in prison”. Trust and Believe…Of this I Am certain! Say, “So long…and thanks for stopping by” (for I have learned the Life Lessons I was meant to, and I AM grateful to move forward in my Life Curriculum).
So…Ask YourSelf…What is
“Freedom”… and what does it mean to YOU?!
Do you want it?… Do you long for it? …Do you
already have it?… Will you make it part of your Life’s resolutions? Will you Choose
Freedom to be who YOU are and who YOU want to be for the rest of your life?
Celebrate the fact of “Being”…..just
who YOU are!
Once again…Always
remember, what YOU do and who YOU are…..MATTERS!
Yes…for me…I no longer
need to know exactly where I AM going.
For me…All I need to Know is that I AM On My Way!
To Our Health, Wealth &
Empowerment…and Freedom Together!
With Love & Blessings!
